A retired Dy.SP allegedly ended his life at his residence in M.C. Hanumanthappa was suffering from chronic ailments and was under depression, and this could be the reason behind his extreme step, a senior police officer said. Hanumanthappa had served as ACP in Vijayanagar sub-division before he retired in 2013. His death comes close on the heels of the death of Dy.SP Lakshmi, who was allegedly found dead at her friend’s house recently.
